Self portrait with Leica and Havana

In my house it would be your birthday, Xmas, New Years, or you just got a new daughter/wife/girl friend. I guess a new camera in hand would count too.
 
Now thats about the coolest self portrait I have seen in a while. Damn embargo! Can't get Cubans here. :mad: Maybe one day I'll get to try one..
 
Nice photo. I gave up smoking many years ago. I haven't given up photography.

I envy you the Havana. I don't evny you the Leica.

To each his own. :D
 
Don't you dare light that cigar. Your camera will stink forever (see thread on used cameras and cigarette smoke). You are reducing its resale value!

8m?

8m?

Is that 8M made in Cuba, or is this the way the photo is supposed to look?

Now that’s a M8. Is that a MP on the table? + you’ve got some very cool lens setting around. Anything special? Backwards it’s still a smoken shot. Bill
 
Its not an MP but a Konica Hexar RF - served me well in Cuba
Here is a photo it took I think the same day as the Leica self portrait



The lenses are a 50 Cron (on the M8), a 21 and 28 Elamarit and the CV 12 and the Nockton 25 f1.2

The cigars are Bolivas, but I stocked up on some Romeo & Juliets and Cohibas too
 
As for the cigars, never acquired the taste, tried many times, but the CV 12 I like a lot.
A fun lens, it makes the M8 a point and shoot.
